How Two BustnesS-Men were Swim
died by a Clever Girl.
A Milford IN. H. special says; A
young businessman here has been
cleverly swindled 10y sharp New York
girl. To-day he is mourning the loss of
5000 and promised wife He has q
companion il misery, mourning for the
same pair OF trumps in ex-Parson Muir
ray, whose home is in Burlington. Mel
ther ever saw the object of his affections
and neither expects to see his cash again.
The Milford man is about twenty-slx
wears old and more than comfortably
well of. a sample copy OF small ma
trimonial sheet called the Heart and
Hand fell into his hands four months
since. He read those "ads" setting
forth in glowing terms the many prizes
to be drawn by those matrimonially in-
clined. One IN particular struck him.
Wanted, male correspondent; OBJ
ject, matumony am twenty-five, healthy,
plump, cheerful, called handsome, and
would make a loving wife. American
only. Lilly MONTGOMERY.
As business man he was interested.
So was a retail clothier in Burlington.
Both men enclosed their business cards
as proof that they were acting in good
faith, and photographs OF the lovely
Lilly were asked in return. A gushing
letter WAS received by each in few days,
enclosed in which we're finely finished
card photographs OF u handsome young
woman. 1t has since been learned that
the ono the Milford man received was
that Of an actress. Things went on
swiynmingly for few weeks. The let
ters we're filed with love, and the cheer
full Lilly was soon the promised wife OF
both. Then slowly she began to put IN
hints OF her poverty, OF her being un-
able to come TO her darling for want OF
cash. cit wounds my pride to speak OF
il. dear" she wrote, but we will
hide nothing from each other" At
last in October she asked her future hus-
bands (him OF Burlington and him OF
Milford, n. H. TO send her a small
check. At once $3.50 of retail clothing
profits was whirling down to her in Der
metropolitan home, but the Milford man
raised him $50 aud 300 went to fit out
the bride. Not word have they heard
from her since. The New Hampshire
man waited month and then opened Il
correspondence with the manager Of the
Private Letter Bureau in Now York. lie
did not get much consolation, but ne
learned that he bad been duped, though
not alone. A letter of inquiry about the
same fascinating young woman had been
received IRON the Vermont man. The
manager forwarded it to let the other
know that he had a feiiow.victim.

DANvILLE, Va, December 15.-The
tobacco breaks were very heavy to-day,
and sales were blocked. No improve

bring fine prices. Will. Devens, a young
farmer from Halifax, disposed of a
beautiful load of the weed to-day, which
realized him $25.50sll around Wagons
are still rolling in with the weed.
r. d. Foster, a resident of North Dan

near fire this morning his pistol slipped
ont of his pocket, and falling to the floor
was prematurely discharged. The ball
entered his right arm above the wrist,
lodging near the elbow. No bones were
broken. The wound is not serious but
very painful.
